Nomyx

The game where you can change the rules

Nomyx

Nomyx is a unique game where you can change the rules of the game itself, while playing it!
In fact, changing the rules is the goal of the game. Changing a rule is considered as a move. Of course even that can be changed!
The players can submit new rules or modify existing ones, thus completely changing the behaviour of the game through time.
The rules are managed and interpreted by the computer. They must be written in the Nomyx language, based on Haskell.
This is the first complete implementation of a Nomic game on a computer.

At the beginning, the initial rules are describing:

How to add new rules and change existing ones. For example a unanimity vote is necessary to have a new rule accepted.

How to win the game. For example you win the game if you have 5 rules accepted.
